Collateral

As the dawn breaks on your face..

I see the golden light touching your visage.
You smile demurely!

Talking to me about the new journeys you just made.

We talk for hours sitting side by side
I never look at you!
But I can still see your eyes
Over those black frames.

And I see a distant dream

Sparkling with joy
Upon the blurry edge of the horizon
  Dazzling and  bright.

I see flashes of many more things
But I remember them not!
As I remember those long conversations with you..
You once told me about the amusement park you visited
And you told me about your friends.
You told me about the foes..
Also we talk about those who know us both,
You tell me what you like about them.

It's 6o'clock in the morning.

My alarm rings…
Like other days ,I do all my chores.
It tires me up mostly!!
These are long days..
And pointless too.
I eagerly wait to see you
To hear from you again..

I wait patiently for the day to end.
And then when it's night.
After I fall asleep!!!

I find myself awake!…
